1. Accessorize your ‘do

With a bit of bobby pins, headscarves, and fancy clips, you can reduce the look of a cut gone wrong. Twist it into an updo or hide the fringes you don’t like. Just be careful not to overdo it or you’ll end up highlighting the bad cut even more.

3. Play with products

This is a good time to experiment with your ‘do. Try playing with a little salt spray or using a bit of texturizing cream to see how far your hair can go. Mix up your look and go crazy with hair products.

4. Go for extensions

If you really miss French braiding your previously long hair, go for hair extensions. Consider going for clip-in hair extensions, as they are affordable and temporary. You don’t have to wait for your locks to grow to try a new look.
